| rick_h_ | morning | 12:34 |
| shakes808 | morning | 12:40 |
| _stink_ | yo | 12:48 |
| greg-g | mmhmm | 14:48 |
| greg-g | I watched the debate last night at a bar in DC. It wasn't as eventful as I expected it to be. | 14:48 |
| greg-g | the being in DC part, that is | 14:48 |
| cmaloney | No random Joe Biden jumping on tables? | 14:54 |
| cmaloney | Because that's what DC needs | 14:54 |
| rick_h_ | greg-g: heh | 14:54 |
| rick_h_ | I don't know how people can watch that stuff | 14:54 |
| greg-g | it made me drink too much, that's for sure | 14:54 |
| rick_h_ | I made it 5min into debate #2 and was going to start throwing things at my TV | 14:55 |
| rick_h_ | 90min of that full bore? I'm missing a gene for that stuff | 14:55 |
| greg-g | cmaloney: and yeah, a large portion of people were completely ignoring it, no big reactions in the bar or anything | 14:55 |
| rick_h_ | heh, they'll work for whoever I guess | 14:55 |
| cmaloney | Sharp contrast to when we were at MichiPUG one evening and the debates were on | 14:55 |
| cmaloney | (2008 I think?) | 14:55 |
| cmaloney | Diane Marsh was all over that | 14:56 |
| cmaloney | Decided sitting in a coffee shop and swearing at Javascript was a better use of my time | 14:57 |
| rick_h_ | lol | 14:57 |
| rick_h_ | not a bad plan for sure | 14:57 |
| Zimdale | Swearing at javascript is always the best use of time. | 14:57 |
| Zimdale | fucking javascript! | 14:57 |
| cmaloney | Better for the blood pressure | 14:57 |
| cmaloney | best thing I've seen all day: use a = void 0; when you want to make sure something is undefined. | 14:58 |
| cmaloney | as opposed to a = undefined; | 14:58 |
| cmaloney | because somoene might have redefined undefined. | 14:58 |
| cmaloney | The last time I heard of someone redefining keywords was in Forth | 14:58 |
| cmaloney | and was related to me by a programmer at Ford about a system that someone wrote that he was debugging (and swearing at) | 14:59 |
| Zimdale | I don't think you can redefine undefined | 14:59 |
| Zimdale | Yeah unless you've got some funky interpreter | 15:00 |
| cmaloney | function foo(undefined) { undefined = 5; a = undefined; console.log(undefined); } | 15:01 |
| cmaloney | > foo(); | 15:01 |
| cmaloney | 5 | 15:01 |
| cmaloney | undefined | 15:01 |
| cmaloney | But yeah, you have to work a bit to be stupid. | 15:02 |
| Zimdale | hmm interesting | 15:03 |
| Zimdale | That edge case does not happen enough for me to use a === void 0 8P | 15:03 |
| cmaloney | bah, replace the console.log(a) | 15:03 |
| cmaloney | but same diff | 15:03 |
| cmaloney | again, you have to work at it | 15:04 |
| cmaloney | Almost makes me want to put: if (undefined !== void 0) { console.log("Who did this?!?"); }; at the beginning of my code. | 15:05 |
| Zimdale | you can't set the global undefined | 15:07 |
| cmaloney | right, but if your code is called from inside another function... | 15:07 |
| _stink_ | not anymore. | 15:07 |
| cmaloney | ^^ | 15:07 |
| Zimdale | I think it may work within a function because of the argument thing. | 15:07 |
| Zimdale | Guess it depends on your app | 15:07 |
| cmaloney | Yeah | 15:08 |
| cmaloney | and it's not bad, per se, just another place where I scratch my head at some design decisions | 15:09 |
| cmaloney | like NaN | 15:09 |
| Zimdale | So did you get work cmaloney? | 17:40 |
| cmaloney | not yet | 17:51 |
| cmaloney | https://plus.google.com/u/0/+CraigMaloney/posts/77FgMi5GGAD | 17:51 |
| cmaloney | What I think I am: Bad-ass developer who makes cool shit. | 17:51 |
| cmaloney | What my resume says: I adversely contributed to the world's Excel file problem. | 17:51 |
| Scary_Guy | could be worse, it could say "was part of the team that made windows ME" | 17:55 |
| cmaloney | Not sure it's much better. | 17:57 |
| Scary_Guy | you'll have to tell me the story sometime. but hey, as someone who uses libreoffice, please make excel as fucked up as possible so we can get more to switch | 17:58 |
| cmaloney | heh | 17:58 |
| cmaloney | Was more a metaphor of the gap between where I thought I would be and where I landed | 17:58 |
| cmaloney | There's probably a German word that encapsulates that | 17:59 |
| cmaloney | WELTSCHMERZ | 18:00 |
| cmaloney | TORSCHLUSSPANIK | 18:00 |
| cmaloney | God bless the Germans | 18:00 |
| Scary_Guy | gott mit uns :p | 18:01 |
| Scary_Guy | apologees to any germans, had to go for the off color joke | 18:02 |
